Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the appeal site would be in a suitable location for new tourist accommodation having regard to the relevant development plan policies

What decided it

The proposal conflicts with Policy DM18 of the development plan as the glamping pods would not be directly related to an existing tourism attraction or involve conversion of an existing building, and the moderate benefits of the scheme do not outweigh this conflict.
